I'm fairly new ... diagnosed with TM 18 months ago. I can still get around
with a cane during the morning but I end up sittling a lot the rest of the day.
I have a question about heat. It seems to me that I get immobile quicker when
I get hot than not ... like sitting in a chair in the sun and
I find that the heat and sun cause two distinct affects. My weaker leg becomes
less mobile and feels like a log. It feels like I'm dragging a giant tree
trunk around with me. The heat and humidy makes me feel like my muscles are
mushy and I never know what direction I'm going to wander off

Hello George in Colorado and Laura in North Carolina,
I live in Calgary Alberta. I find the heat and hot sun just too much for me
in the summer time. I too get loggy with the heat. I spend those days indoors
with the doors and windows open as I like to feel the summer but can't stand to
be
Hi Everyone,
My right foot and ankle have been swelling everyday now. (this is the side
affected by TM) It used to be only after I had been up all day but now I wake
up with it swollen. Has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks for your reply.

I too experience swelling in foot and ankle but only after I've been on it all
day. The swelling goes down when I elevate my feet during the day and when I
get upin the morning.
I think this is something you need to check out with your doctor. This could
be totally unrelated

*Have you possibly been overcompensating for that side of your body?
Sometimes, I have the same thing happen due to overcompensation, or favoring
one side overf the other.*
